"pilosa" (Ehrenberg, 1854, pl.37, section 8, fig. 4) Wetzel, 1933b, p.43.  Emendation: Erkmen and Sarjeant, 1980, p.50, as Sentusidinium pilosum. Holotype: Ehrenberg, 1854, pl.37, fig.8, no.4.  Combination not validly published: generic name not validly published until 1937.  NOW Barbatacysta pilosa.  Originally Xanthidium pilosum (Appendix A), subsequently Hystrichosphaera pilosa (combination not validly published), thirdly Hystrichosphaeridium? pilosum, fourthly Baltisphaeridium pilosum (Appendix A), fifthly Ovum hispidum subsp. pilosum (combination not validly published; Appendix A), sixthly Cleistosphaeridium pilosum (combination not validly published), seventhly Tenua pilosa, eighthly Sentusidinium pilosum, ninthly Batiacasphaera pilosa, tenthly (and now) Barbatacysta pilosa.  The validity/authorship of this name may need to be reconsidered as it appears that Ehrenberg (1854) did not provide a description.  Age: Oxfordian.
